| Welcome to July’s addition of “10 on 10”- a blog circle made up of several photographers posting ten images on a new topic each month. This month’s theme: what last month looked like! This works out quite well as I was nearly silent on my blog last month. So here is a quick recap of how we spent June:
The month began as I was wrapping up another class in Photoshop. This caused me to spend some serious time reexamining white balance and my post-processing skills in editing skin tones (which means I spent a lot of time chasing my baby around holding this grey card, in all different lighting, to make sure that what I was seeing and how I was editing the colors of skin was really accurate.) I drove myself slightly mad during the process (I can be a little um, obsessive about these sorts of things), but learned a lot in this fantastic class, and luckily- I have such a cute and agreeable model on hand to help out. He was such a good sport about it! |
| Kiddo also finished his first year of school and summer officially began (many photos of that exciting event on Instagram. Want to follow me over there? I’m @juliatulley.) Now that it is summer, our rituals of sunset “family” walks (and now this year “scoots,” as kiddo has made this cool new acquisition) have resumed. I love this time of day!   We took a trip to Lincoln Park Zoo, visited the animals and ran through fountains… And a semi-big event in our home… we finally packed up kiddo’s “baby” books (it was a tough few hours for all of us, he took some time to say goodbye to them.) Although I did promise we wouldn’t give them away so he could revisit them when he wanted (to be fair, the book situation was getting a little out of control and it was time to make room for the abundance of “big kid” books he also has.) And finally, I found a lovely little “urban oasis” just around the corner from home, quite perfect for more photos. |
